5 Feet of Fury

‘Russell pulled out the old liberal trope that conservatives are angry…’

writes Rick McGinnis about his appearance on the Michael Coren panel:

which is especially rich as the angriest people I’ve ever known were leftists, when they weren’t wrapped up in their anxiety, neuroses and depression — myself included.

The anecdote about kids wandering the streets howling at people to turn off their lights during Earth Hour was true, but it says a lot more about my neighbourhood – or rather the one we’re leaving, which never felt like a better move than it did at that moment.

It’s interesting that neither Catherine nor Russell ended up observing Earth Hour despite their best intentions, which is a telling indication of how dull the sheen has gotten on that little social and cultural bauble.
